Hi Micah,
On my uBuntu distributions the config files have been in /etc/clamav at
least since uBuntu 10.04 LTS so I see no issue with the change.
It makes /usr/local/etc consistent with /etc which is always a good
thing when you are trying to debug/find/compare things when something
has gone wrong.
Regards
Mark.

Hi all,
I could use your opinion about a change we'd planned to make in 0.104.
By request, I'd made this pull request to change the default directory
for the config files from <prefix>/etc to <prefix>/etc/clamav. The
purpose being to de-clutter /usr/local/etc:
https://github.com/Cisco-Talos/clamav/pull/182
I procrastinated merging it for a long time because while it feels like
a good change it will require a change to our test framework and would
likely break scripts for other users as well. Some justification for the
change at this time is that with the build system change to cmake, users
will likely have to change the same scripts anyhow so we don't have any
better time.
Unfortunately, I procrastinated it so hard I forgot to merge it before
the first release candidate. Now, I can't decide if it's right to merge
it before the second release candidate or throw it away. I would like
your opinion.
Regards,
Micah
